Darfur Diary

Check this out.

Daryn Kobata, editor of Caltech 336, is taking a leave of absence to serve as the communications officer for the World Relief Darfur Relief Collaboration, a group of six humanitarian agencies working in conflict-affected areas of West Darfur, Sudan. The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect those of Caltech...
(I wonder if the disclaimer has anything to do with the fact that Kobata is a person of faith? Nah, couldn't be. Right?)

Anyway, it's an interesting read, from somebody actually on the ground in Darfur.

The entries start February 14, 2005, and end March 23, 2005. Does anybody know what's happened to Kobata since then?

UPDATE: http://pr.caltech.edu/periodicals/336/articles/Volume%205/03-10-05/darfur.html is an article on the author and her project, and has a picture of her on a camel.
